Buggy and frustrating

Z is one of my all-time favorite strategy games. I still play it on my PC using DOSBox, but this rendition of the game is poorly executed at best.

Controls are unresponsive, units fail to carry out orders and simply "stop" on their way to their destination, combat damage randomization is skewed heavily on the side of the computer, and the minimap tool is terribly implemented. Even worse, the ability to select units can become "stuck" if you try to select a building with a mobile unit already selected. Rather than transfering selection to the building, you get a little, red waggling finger no matter where you click, forcing a reload most of the time.

The fact is, none of these issues exist in the PC version. I think many of the positive reviews hear are lost in nostalgia for the most part. I was excited to find this, but Im very disappointed in the release. Hopefully, the developers can iron out these issues and make this the game its always been.
